Chondrodite with Galena

Kaveltorp, Kopparberg, Ljusnarsberg, Västmanland, Sweden

5cm x 4.5cm x 1.57cm

Ex. A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum #DM-9036


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare, old time example of chondrodite from Sweden!!! I must start by saying that this specimen is way better than the pictures show!!! This specimen consists of a galena matrix that hosts numerous highly complex crystals of chondrodite!!! The chondrodite crystals exhibit complex habits that exhibit a combination of sharp faces and irregular yet lustrous faces!!! The crystals have a yellowish to golden color with clarity that ranges from translucent to near gemmy in areas!!! This is an amazing old time specimen!!! This specimen retains labels from the Seaman Museum as well as an older unattributed label!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! crystals STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY FEBRUARY 10th!!! **We have just returned from the annual Gem & Mineral Show in Tucson, Arizona!!!
